Ingredients

• 4 slices Thick slices of bread (brioche or challah preferred)
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.5 cup Whole milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 0.25 cup Fruit jam or preserves (any flavor of your choice)
• 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until fully combined.

Step 2

Preheat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter, letting it melt completely.

Step 3

Dip one slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated but not overly soaked. Repeat for a second slice.

Step 4

Place the coated slices on the skillet and cook for 2–3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and set aside.

Step 5

Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in the skillet and repeat the process for the other two slices of bread.

Step 6

While the second batch finishes cooking, spread a generous layer of jam onto one side of each cooked slice of bread.

Step 7

Assemble the sandwiches by placing one jam-covered slice on top of another, jam sides facing inward, to create two sandwiches in total.

Step 8

Lower the heat to medium-low and return the assembled sandwiches to the skillet. Cook for 1–2 minutes on each side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the sandwiches are warm and the jam is slightly melted.

Step 9

Remove from the skillet, transfer to plates, and slice diagonally for easy serving.

Step 10

Dust with powdered sugar if desired and serve immediately.
